Marxist philosophy points out that all kinds of things and phenomena in the material world are a contradictory system and a whole containing opposing aspects. The development of things themselves is the development of opposites. In the struggle and unity of opposites, realize the dialectical movement from low to high. Its basic direction and general trend are advancing and rising, and it is a spiral or wave-like tortuous process.
As a special thing, man is also a contradictory system and a whole containing opposing aspects. A person's life is also a spiral or wave-like tortuous process, which goes through birth, growth, maturity and extinction. Its basic direction and general trend is to continue to mature, and finally the fruit will fall. Therefore, in the spiral or wave-like tortuous life course, the most important thing for a person is to choose the right goal and take the right path, so that he will not take detours, go astray or even die.
There is a legend of "fishing for the moon in the water" in China, which tells that there is a little monkey playing by the well. When he looked into the well, there was a moon in it. The little monkey shouted: Oh, no! Shit! The moon fell into the well! Hearing this, the big monkey ran over and cried, Oh, no! Shit! The moon fell into the well! Hearing this, the old monkey ran over to have a look and cried with it: Oh, no! Shit! The moon fell into the well! When the monkeys nearby heard this, they all ran to see everyone shouting. Oh, no! Shit! The moon fell into the well! Let's get it out quickly! The monkeys climbed up the big tree by the well. The old monkey hung upside down on the big tree and grabbed the big monkey's foot. The big monkey hangs upside down and grabs another monkey's foot. Monkeys hang in the well one by one, and little monkeys hang in the bottom of the well. The little monkey reached for the moon, but as soon as his hand touched the water, the moon disappeared. The old monkey looked up, and the moon was still hanging in the sky, panting, no need to catch it! Don't fish! The moon is hanging in the sky! This legend makes us think that monkeys are cute and smart, but also stupid to follow the crowd. In this wisdom and stupidity, it tells us a simple truth, that is, no matter what you do, you must first choose the right goal and choose the right goal; If the goal you choose is illusory, then no matter how hard you try, it will be futile.
There is also a fable in ancient China that once upon a time there was a man from Wei to Chu. He took a lot of money, rented a good car, rode a good horse, hired a skilled driver and set off. Chu is in the south of Wei, but this man asked the coachman to drive journey to the south away without asking. Someone on the road asked him where his car was going, and he replied loudly: "To Chu!" " Passers-by told him, "To go to Chu, you should go south. You are going north, in the wrong direction. "The man said casually," Never mind, my horse is fast! ""Passers-by worried about him, grabbed his horse and stopped him, saying, "The direction is wrong. No matter how fast your horse is, it will never reach Chu! "The man still didn't wake up and said," Never mind, I have a lot of money on me! " Passers-by tried to dissuade them, saying, "Although you have a lot of money, you can only spend a lot of money instead of going in that direction! "The man who just wanted to go to Chu said impatiently," What's the difficulty? My coachman drives very well! " "Passers-by is helpless, so we have to loosen the handlebar hand and watch the blind Ren Wei leave. Wei ren, on the other hand, did not listen to others' advice, and relied on his superior conditions such as fast horses, more money and good drivers to do the opposite. Then, the better he is, the farther he will go because his general direction is wrong. This fable tells us that no matter what one does, he must choose the right direction and take the right road after the goal is chosen; If you choose the wrong direction and go the wrong way, the more favorable the conditions are, the harder you work, the more counterproductive it will be.
China has a two-part allegorical saying, "Draw water with a sieve". If you draw water with a bamboo basket, the water will flow away from the gap, so it's a waste of effort. To spend time, energy or pain. Because the method adopted is not suitable, you will get nothing in the end. This two-part allegorical saying shows from the side that the choice of tools and methods is equally important after the goal and direction are right.
Mao Zedong, a great Marxist thinker, revolutionist and strategist, attached great importance to working methods in the process of leading China's revolution and construction. He said: "We should not only put forward the task, but also solve the problem of how to complete it. Our task is to cross the river, but we can't cross it without a bridge and a boat. If we don't solve the problem of bridge or boat, crossing the river is empty talk. If we don't solve the problem of methods, the task is only nine Niu Yi hairs. " His words tell an absolute truth: even if the goals and tasks are correct, they will become "empty talk" and "nonsense" if the correct working methods are not chosen to achieve them. On the road of life, people not only need to choose the right goal, but also need to choose the right path and the right method to achieve it.
Liu Qing, a famous contemporary novelist in China, famously said in his masterpiece The History of Entrepreneurship: "Although the road of life is long, there are often only a few important steps, especially when people are young. No one's life path is straight and there are no forks in the road. Some forks, such as political forks and personal forks, can affect a life and a lifetime if you take a wrong step. " This famous saying not only reveals the truth that "everyone will meet a fork in the road in life", but also tells people how important it is to choose the right goals, paths and methods at several important nodes in life.
Ren Zhengfei, president of Huawei, once concluded: "The two foundations of our victory are that the direction should be roughly correct; Second, the organization should be full of vitality. We must have the right direction. We may not find the right direction, but we can only keep exploring and the direction is roughly correct. " The right direction is not only important for anyone, but also for any enterprise.
